16
Q

a mudflow or fast-flowing mixture of water and solid particles consisting of rock, wood and debris from a volcanic eruption

17
Q

high-density mixtures of hot, dry rock fragments and hot gases that move away from source of vents at speeds of 30 to 90 mph

A

PYROCLASTIC FLOWS

18
Q

Turbulent and low density clouds of rock debris, air and other gases that move over the ground surface at speeds. similar to pyroclastic flows.

A

PYROCLASTIC SURGES

19
Q

is due to the rocks that hurl into the air because of the volcanic eruption block and bombs travel like a cannonball

A

BALLISTIC PROJECTILES

Q

This consist predominately of steam and followed in abundance of carbon dioxide and compounds such as sulfur and chlorine.

A

21
Q

■are streams of molten rock that erupt relatively non- explosively move downslope

22
Q

masses of solid rocks that are formed when viscous lava erupts slowly from a vent
